Finished my new x-pipe duals set up finally! I got it pretty much just the way I want it, very quiet. pacesetter LT's, 3" exhaust piping, x-pipe, 2 magnaflow mufflers, 2 spiral flow mufflers, under the axle and out the back. Super awesome clearance.

here is one more picture of under the axle. The picture is deceiving. It looks like the pipe is touching the floor but in reality there is about 4" of clearance. that there is by far the lowest point, but the way I figure it is the only way I can scrape these pipes is going over a speed bump sideways. My car is alittle bit taller than stock, and soon I will put my 28" tires back so the rear will grow once more. The increased height of my car allows me to go over bumps head on. That and Arizona has some really nice roads :D

How much clearance do you have between ground and pipe back there near the axle?

Off topic here, but what does you're car top the scales at?

i never got why running them under the axle was any cheaper than running them over... looks like the same amount of bends almost...

Not so much that it is cheaper, just the fact that it is easier.

4" of clearance. It is way easier to go under the axle. You have to consider rear axle versus body movement, sway bar movement, and sway bar mounts. It would have taken me much much longer. The other reason I decided to go under the axle is because the way I see it is whatever will hit this exhaust would have hit or damaged the rear axle or gas tanks/lines.
I am not sure what the car weighs....it used to be a drag car so its relatively stripped on the interior.
